Angelina Jolie: My kids need time-outs

9th October 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Angelina Jolie says her children "have their moments" but is still "very proud" of them.

The Hollywood actress raises six kids with her partner Brad Pitt; Maddox, 10, Pax, seven, Zahara, six, Shiloh, five, and three-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

Angelina says her young brood are a handful at times, but both she and Brad are immensely proud of them all.

"Yeah, I mean, they're still so young they have their time-outs," she laughed in an interview with the UK edition of OK! magazine.

"They have their moments and they have their arguments amongst each other, but all in all they are really great kids that we are very proud of."

Angelina considers herself to be a caring mom. The 36-year-old star says her mother Marcheline Bertrand taught her to be an understanding parent.

"I hope I'm a good mom. I had a really great mom, who was my best friend, she taught me a lot," she explained. "I'm a friend to my children. I love them and I talk to them honestly, and I support them to be who they are, but I'm learning hopefully every day to be a better mother.

"And your kids teach you, I think, to be a better parent. You have to listen to them and figure out their needs." (C) Cover Media
